(...) It's not the speed of UPS that's impressed me, it's the speed with which Lawrence got the photos up on his website!!! How'd you do that? I'd love to know what camera you used.

(...) Isn't it as likely that the tender uses some pieces from the base kit (either 3740 or 3741), and some pieces from the tender kit (3742) are used in the modified engine? Steve (23 years ago, 25-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.uk)
